Memo to Michelle Malkin – Move on, please….

(H/T to HotAir.com)

I knew this was going to happen… I am again forced to criticize Michelle Malki n. (or say the stuff that Ed and Allah want to say, but will not, because they do not want to get fired!)

In this Video Michelle is carping about the way that the Sarah Palin was treated and because John McCain didn’t jump on the sofa like Tom Cruise and scream to the top his lungs, “The EVIL Liberal destroyed my changes of being President! and My former campaign staffers are trashing her now, shame shame shame!”

Here’s the nail scratching the chalk board video:

However, this is what I heard the whole time I watched it:

I think if women, Conservative or Liberal want to be taken seriously in Politics, at least by this writer; they need to act like adults and not crybabies when things really don’t go their way.

I mean Michelle criticizes the homosexuals over prop 8 and tells them to move on. So, why doesn’t she practice what she preaches? 🙄

Just sayin’

Creepy, Freaky and quite deaky!: Obama to appoint an "auto czar?"

(H/T to Michelle)

Full Disclosure: My Dad is a retired G.M. Employee and Union member.

You know, living here in the middle of all things Liberal, being a Libertarian Conservative is a bit, well; Odd. It does have it’s advantages. I tend to be a bit more Moderate about things. However, this one here spooks me.

This one’s via US News and World Report:

The troubles of the ailing auto industry are quickly becoming a major focus for President-Elect Barack Obama’s young administration. As Congress and President Bush debate an industry bailout, sources indicate that Obama may favor creating a White House office, headed by an “auto industry czar,” to oversee reforming the troubled American auto industry.
The Detroit News reports that both “Bush and Obama are signaling they may favor appointment of an auto czar to oversee the government’s efforts to funnel emergency assistance to automakers.” Congressional leaders and members of both the outgoing and incoming administrations have all said that automakers might receive federal aid only on certain dictions, including efforts “to further improve fuel efficiency and show that they have a plan to return to profitability. Automakers could also be required to give the government preferred stock in the companies and accept government representatives as board members. As in the 1979-80 Chrysler bailout, workers may have to make wage concessions.”
The press was unable to get direct confirmation of the plan yesterday. John Podesta, the former Clinton administration official heading Obama’s transition team, told the Washington Post “When we have an announcement about that, we’ll raise it.”

While I am bit happy to see that my dad’s 31 years will not be basically flushed down the toliet, because of incompetent managers. The word Czar being used in the relation to Business, gives me the willies. Least I be accused to trying to channel McCarthy; I think it reaks of Communism myself.

Could not they use another word? Like Commission, or Overseer, or something? Anything but Czar. 😮

I may just be a old paranoid weirdo, but Czar conjures up images of concentration camps, Nazi’s and all that sort of stuff.

President Bush Reflects on His Presidency

You know, I have criticized this man and his Administration in the past, but I think him writing the book might just help. I did not agree with his decisions, but I do not hate him, at all. He did what he felt was right, at the time; we all know that the reasons he went into Iraq, were wrong, because of flawed intelligence. But in the end, I believe the Iraqi’s are better off. They’re free and not under a murderous dictator.

I think history might redeem him, although, he will be a source of hatred on the left for many years to come. Either way, I think he’s just relieved to be finished, and considering the hell he’s been through, I can’t say that I blame him.

In defense of Ed Morrissey

It is not everyday that I agree with a Republican. In fact, there’s quite a bit that I disagree with Republicans on.

I have had disagreements with Ed Morrissey, him and I disagree on the whole “Right to life” idea. I think abortion is a Moral issue and the Government should not be used to make moral decisions. Ed disagrees and that’s his right. Could you imagine how boring America would be, if we all agreed on everything? Besides, Barry Goldwater agreed that one cannot legislate morality. This is why he was not elected President in 1964.

Well, today Mr. Morrissey posted one of the most level-headed entries on HotAir.com, that I’ve read in a good long time. Basically, Ed advised Republicans and Conservatives not to act like their Liberal counterparts. Not surprisingly, some Conservative Bloggers trashed Ed for his position.

So, because I happen to respect Ed quite a bit. I’m basically posting a defense for the guy.

I happen to think, as an ex-left of center Blogger, as a now Moderate Conservative, as a Moderate to Right-Libertarian; I happen to believe that Ed Morrissey is one of the most level-headed and more “in touch with Reality” Conservative Bloggers out there. More so than his own boss. I respect Michelle, don’t get me wrong; but there are times when she goes a bit overboard. I do it too, I get caught up in my emotions and say stuff, that I later look at and go “ack!”. It happens.

Anyhow, I just happen to believe that if more Republicans were a bit more like Ed, (and perhaps me! *snicker*) I think a bunch more Liberals would believe that we Conservatives were not the crazed, Gun clinging, Religion humping, Bitter crazy people that they believe that we are now. (or is it…. Religion clinging and Gun Humping??? Hmmmm…)

So, Please, leave Ed alone… he’s making sense…and Considering the position that the Republican Party is in, this is a good thing. Because nothing is more of a buzz kill and that’s a crazy minority political party. 😉

Shocking News: Gay anarchist group attacks Church

This is sick and totally disgusting.

The Story via RightMichigan:

This is what we’re up against.

On Sunday morning, amidst worshiping congregants and following unifying prayers that our President-elect be granted wisdom as he prepares to lead our nation through difficult global, social and economic challenges, the Michigan left declared open war on peaceful church goers.
They did it with banners, chants, blasphemy, by storming the pulpit, by vandalizing the church facility, by potentially defiling the building with lewd, public, sex acts and by intentionally forcing physical confrontations with worshipers.
This didn’t take place in some dystopian, post modern work of fiction and it didn’t take place in San Francisco or Berkley. This was the scene at a Bible believing church in Lansing, Michigan.
[…]
The lefties were a part of a liberal organization known as Bash Back Lansing and their collection of radical blogs, including one of the state’s most widely read "mainstream" progressive blogs (and none which will receive a link on this website) called on "queers and trannies" from across the state and the region to converge on Lansing for what they refer to as an "action." While many of the members claim to be anarchists (they drove on roads, ate non-garden grown foods, printed materials on products created by government protected free markets, wore clothing, talk incessantly about "organization," etc etc etc) their broader goal is stated plainly on one of their lefty blogs.
"I can tell you that we are targeting a well-known anti-queer, anti-choice radical right wing establishment."
Mount Hope, for the record, is an evangelical, bible believing church whose members provide free 24 hour counseling, prayer lines, catastrophic care for families dealing with medical emergencies, support groups for men, women and children dealing with a wide variety of life’s troubles, crisis intervention, marriage ministries, regular, organized volunteer work in and around the city, missions in dozens of countries across the globe, a construction ministry that has built over 100 churches, schools, orphanages and other projects all over the world and an in-depth prison ministry that reaches out, touches and helps the men and women the rest of society fears the most. They also teach respect for all human life and the Biblical sanctity of marriage as an institution between one man and one woman.

…….and you wonder why I despise liberals so much?

This is obviously a sign that we as Conservative Christians are now at war. War against a Liberal machine that wants to destroy America and values that we a American and Christians hold dear.

But wait there’s more:

Their other props? I’ll let them tell you in their own words… from another of their liberal blogs:
"(A) video camera, a megaphone, noise makers, condoms, glitter by the bucket load, confetti, pink fabric…yeh."
The video camera they put to good use as they attempted to provoke a violent reaction. The image of the pink-clad folks above is one of theirs, stating in a picture worth more than a thousand words the goals of the Michigan left.
The "open minded" and "tolerant" liberals ran down the aisles and across the pews, hoping against hope to catch a "right winger" on tape daring to push back (none did). And just in case their camera missed the target, they had a reporter in tow. According to a source inside the church yesterday there was a "journalist" from the Lansing City Pulse along for the ride, tipped off about the action and more interested in getting a story than in preventing the vandalism, the violence and anti-Christian hatred being spewed by the lefties. We’ll see what he files and what his editors see fit to print.

Do you now see what I mean, when I call the Liberal main stream media as the Marxist Liberal Media? They sat back and watched this Church getting attacked, hoping that the Church would lash out in self defense, they would get it on tape; then they could use against them in the media. A perfect plan.

My dear readers, it is time to stop being pacifists and start defending our own. There is a book, that I highly recommend that ALL Christians read, and that is this:

But of course: Now that she's not a threat, they want to fawn over her…

(H/T to The Corner)

Over at My Way, they’re reporting that:

Gov. Sarah Palin hadn’t been back home in Alaska for a full day and her staff had begun fielding requests Thursday for postelection interviews, including from Barbara Walters, Oprah Winfrey, Larry King and others.
Palin had been expected at her office in Anchorage but later notified her staff that she wouldn’t show up after all. She remained at her home in Wasilla, located 40 miles to the north, but was expected in her office on Friday, spokesman Bill McAllister said.
“The intensity of all the interest is amazing. Everyone wants to talk to her,” he said.
Palin is coming off a whirlwind nine weeks of almost nonstop travel and campaigning since becoming Republican John McCain’s vice presidential running mate in late August. McCain and Palin lost Tuesday’s election to Democrats Barack Obama and Joe Biden.

Oh yeah, now that she is not a threat to Obama’s agenda, the Liberal media wants to treat her like a martyr of the Feminist Movement. Personally, If I were Palin, I would tell the likes of Oprah, King and Walters to kiss my ass.

Of course, she’ll run the show circuit and write a book, and basically become the next Ann Coulter. Which is about what she’s good for, if you ask me.

Stop the Presses!

I’m actually agreeing with a Liberal! 😮

Booman at the Booman Tribune says:

I want to be clear that I do not expect, or even want, Barack Obama to govern as I would govern. However, if I were president-elect, I would be planning quite an operation on inauguration day. As soon as I was sworn in, I would demand that Robert Mueller submit his resignation. Then I would instruct the FBI to lock down FBI Headquarters, the Pentagon’s Defense Intelligence Agency offices, the executive suites at the CIA, the National Security Agency’s offices, the National Intelligence Agency’s offices, and management’s offices at the Department of Justice. I would tell them to put yellow police tape around all of these buildings and offices, and I would treat each as a crime scene. I’d have them preserve evidence from every safe, every email cache, every hard-drive. And then I would prosecute every violation to the fullest extent of the law.

Amen to that. I would do the same. Although, I tend to believe much of what happened, was not “ordered” by Bush Per Se, but by his Administration. However, I agree with the statement. There is no mistake, there was corruption and it should be investigated.

Way to go Joe….

Nice…. Joe Scarborough breaks the law on National TV and it’s funny…

Via Politico:

Joe Scarborough, on “Morning Joe” just now, was talking about the “steady nature” of Barack Obama, David Axelrod, and Robert Gibbs, and how new chief of staff Rahm Emanuel will fit in.
“These are good, decent, steady men that don’t go around flipping people off or yelling f— you at the top of their lungs.”
“The chances are good that Rahm Emanuel is going to have to become a member of the Obama campaign,” he continued.
Scarborough later corrected himself, saying he didn’t realize he said the full word.
“Great apologies if I used the word instead of the letter,” Scarborough said, adding that his wife was going to kill him.

Had this been Keith Olbermann, the right wing media would have been asking for his head.

Real nice Joe, a good way to make the Republicans look even smarter than they do now. 🙄

Update: Think Progress has a better clip:

The reaction is hilariously funny. 😛

Kids…Kids….

Play nice…

The election is over with for goodness sakes… Let’s work on rebuilding and not on the killing of one other.

…and for goodness sakes stop with the damned navel grazing already! 🙄

We lost, big deal, life goes on, we became the minority. It isn’t the end of the world ya’ll.

Don’t make me come outta this bunker…. 😛

Reality Bites for the Neo-Cons

P.J. O’Rourke is having a bad case of reality handed to him.

Let us bend over and kiss our ass goodbye. Our 28-year conservative opportunity to fix the moral and practical boundaries of government is gone–gone with the bear market and the Bear Stearns and the bear that’s headed off to do you-know-what in the woods on our philosophy.
An entire generation has been born, grown up, and had families of its own since Ronald Reagan was elected. And where is the world we promised these children of the Conservative Age? Where is this land of freedom and responsibility, knowledge, opportunity, accomplishment, honor, truth, trust, and one boring hour each week spent in itchy clothes at church, synagogue, or mosque? It lies in ruins at our feet, as well it might, since we ourselves kicked the shining city upon a hill into dust and rubble. The progeny of the Reagan Revolution will live instead in the universe that revolves around Hyde Park.
Mind you, they won’t live in Hyde Park. Those leafy precincts will be reserved for the micromanagers and macro-apparatchiks of liberalism–for Secretary of the Department of Peace Bill Ayers and Secretary of the Department of Fairness Bernardine Dohrn. The formerly independent citizens of our previously self-governed nation will live, as I said, around Hyde Park. They will make what homes they can in the physical, ethical, and intellectual slums of the South Side of Chicago.
The South Side of Chicago is what everyplace in America will be once the Democratic administration and filibuster-resistant Democratic Congress have tackled global warming, sustainability, green alternatives to coal and oil, subprime mortgage foreclosures, consumer protection, business oversight, financial regulation, health care reform, taxes on the “rich,” and urban sprawl. The Democrats will have plenty of time to do all this because conservatism, if it is ever reborn, will not come again in the lifetime of anyone old enough to be rounded up by ACORN and shipped to the polling booths.
None of this is the fault of the left. After the events of the 20th century–national socialism, international socialism, inter-species socialism from Earth First–anyone who is still on the left is obviously insane and not responsible for his or her actions. No, we on the right did it. The financial crisis that is hoisting us on our own petard is only the latest (if the last) of the petard hoistings that have issued from the hindquarters of our movement. We’ve had nearly three decades to educate the electorate about freedom, responsibility, and the evils of collectivism, and we responded by creating a big-city-public-school-system of a learning environment. – More at The Weekly Standard

One thing that O’Rourke fails to realize is that the polices advocated by the Kristol’s that basically were the foundation for the “Bush Doctrine”; were, in fact, the reason that the Conservatives lost this election in the first place. Yes, the economy was factor, John McCain’s rather stupid campaign was a factor, but one cannot escape that the main underlying reason for the ass kicking that the Republicans received in this election, and that was the FAILED polices of the Bush Administration and the many scandals that came out of it. Neo-Conservatives tried like bloody hell to spin the scandals, but the American people are just not that stupid. They saw spin and they voted accordingly.

Until the Republican Party literally casts out the Neo-Conservatives out of their party and gets back to the old school Libertarian Conservatism of Barry Goldwater, of which O’Rourke tries to rather lamely dismiss; the Republican Party will become a thing of the past. Neo-Conservatism of the Bush stripe, just does not work in America and in the context of a modern Democracy; It has been tried and it has failed miserably. Further more the Republican Party needs to tell the Evangelical Conservative Christian movement to tend to their own affairs in the Church, and stop meddling in the affairs of Government. it is this writers opinion, that one of the worst things that ever happened to the Conservative movement, was the inclusion of the Religious-Right movement. It ended up costing us the election this time and was more of a liability than an asset.

It is time for the Republican Party as a whole, to rethink their message or face extinction. For the good of the Republic, we cannot afford the Liberals that victory.
